I am sorry to say but I am constantly logged in and do see fundraising banners every year.
Each time when it was announced fundraising banners would come, I have seen them logged in, in multiple countries.

Hey Strainu,
You are probably right in that you saw a banner but regarding specifically fundraising banners, I am 100% certain that the WMF does not and has not for some years actively shown banners to users who are logged in. The caveat with that is this does not preclude any possibility of human error or a software bug. I'm not aware of any specific occasion where this has occurred in the last two years but with a piece of software that serves billions of page views, across 20-30 countries and some probably some 3000 banner tests during that period, probabilities that something hadn't gone wrong start reaching levels of sigma that not even I would attempt to claim :P

WMF hasn't shown fundraising banners to logged in users for several
years.
While I wouldn't bet my life on it, I'm pretty sure I saw banners on mobile just last month, while being logged in.

Hey Ori,
I like the creative thinking :) For the fundraising that could indeed
work
well (although I have no numbers on what percentage of domations comes
from
logged in users etc), but there are also campaigns tht are quite
relevant
for logged in users.

This is possibly the most annoying feature of the Wikimedia
projects at
the moment. You access a page. Then you start reading or editing it.
And
then suddenly the page jumps when a fundraising banner / central
notice /
gadget / beta feature loads. So you have to start reading the page
again,
or you have to find where you were editing again, or you have to
undo
the
change you just made since you made it in the wrong part of the
page.
Or you click "edit" and it hits the banner that suddenly popped up under your click. AAAAAAAAAAAA
One possible solution would be to exempt anyone who edits an article
from
being shown a banner by means of a cookie with a suitable expiry.
Since
only a tiny fraction of visitors edit, I would expect the impact on
the
WMF's bottom line to be negligible. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at:
